Historical Science at Neumann & Kamp
Research
Your own family history, some historical background or a specific search for images: We will investigate on your behalf in both national and international archives and libraries. We will conduct discussions with time witnesses and will advise you with regard to your own historical research activities.
Our range of investigation comprises the complete spectrum of historical research – from the development of specific research strategies and individual investigations to accompanying and supporting major projects in science, journalism, film and radio.
Expert Opinion
Companies increasingly view their actions within the framework of moral and social responsibility. The scientific review of your company history is an instrument for living up to that responsibility. This can include subjects such as the Nazi era, for example, or pollution and questions regarding sustainability or those of social responsibility.
Neumann & Kamp help you to clarify things: Our thorough research gives you comprehensive information about all documents, facts and background knowledge available. This knowledge enables you, for exanple, to plan your communication strategy regarding your company’s anniversary and to live up to your responsibility. We will furnish scientifically-based expert opinions on your behalf in which we will extensively analyse and present your company’s or institution’s role during the period between 1933 and 1945.
Biographies
Neumann & Kamp write scientific biographies on entrepreneurs, on benefactor and founder personages or other figures of historical or public interest. Biographies provide an excellent opportunity for presenting a person’s achievements and their personal legacy in a form that is attractive whilst conveying a sense of quality.
At the same time, biographies provide a fascinating access to history as a whole. That is why, in our books, we always interweave the life, actions and work of the person described with the contexts of economic, cultural and social history. The biographies produced by our team are based on objective scientific research yet they are written in an appealing style. They are created on the basis of archival searches, surveys of publications and conversations with contemporary witnesses. We investigate all relevant archives with great care and evaluate all available documents
